What people say about us

What people say about us

"HWB Communications has assisted [us] with content generation for and with the compilation, design and layout of our monthly newsletter since April 2013. In our experience their work is always professional, of a high standard and in line with our corporate colouring and brand, while still being reader-friendly and engaging our audience with articles that offer interesting facts and practical advice."

Kate Shand : Communications, Housing Development Agency

"HWB Communications have been instrumental in building our media relationships and reputation, helped shape our media and communications strategy and assisted us with crisis-response planning when required.

HWB operates with a high level of professionalism and have established local and global media networks at their disposal."

"They have proven to be a valuable partner and have assisted ADT with the design and execution of our national communications strategies and have developed and maintained good working relationships with the media that report on ADT.

HWB has shown a high level of commitment and understanding of the security industry which has enabled them not only to manage crisis and reputational risk issues on our behalf, but also to secure positive media coverage that has assisted in building the ADT brand and raising awareness of our products and services."

Adrian Good : General Manager (Coastal Region), ADT Security

"In their role as lead partner and project coordinator of the joint venture on the contract they hold with Transport for Cape Town, I have found them easy to work with. They excel in strategic support, guidance, planning, implementation and deliver on their commitments. They have an admirable work ethic where nothing is too much to ask for and ‘going the extra mile’ is simply how they do business."
